We stayed at Ibis Budget Barking on one of the hottest nights of the year. The air-conditioning worked brilliantly, so we had a much better night than friends who stayed at a much more expensive hotel in central London! We were attending an event at The University of East London SportsDock. It was very easy to get to - just a short walk to the bus stop by Tesco, a 19-minute bus journey which took us very close to the venue - so Ibis Budget Barking is ideal for anyone wanting to go to something in East London. The front of house staff were very courteous and helpful. I have rated this 4 rather than 5 as a kettle ought to be a standard offering in all rooms (in Ibis Budget Portsmouth we had a kettle). But, all in all, an excellent budget location.

I travel every week on business and have stayed in many many different hotels, both independent and chain Most Holiday Inns are better than they used to be a few years ago in my opinion. But definitely worth noting the staff at this one are particularly helpful. One in particular - Idris. Is the most helpful and friendly person I’ve met in a long time. Nothing is too much trouble and he goes beyond the call of duty to make your stay enjoyable

We stopped at this Hotel on 17th September 2022 The Hotel is well placed in a good location, from the hotel there is a transfer bus to the airport every 30-minutes cost £4.00 per person payable on the bus. We booked the hotel through Holiday Extras and the cost included 7-days parking at the hotel, the car parks were large and secure, and you keep the car keys, we had no problems finding a parking space. The room we had was clean and spacious and we could not fault. We ate in the Hotel's Restaurant, the food and drinks were reasonably priced, and our waiter Dimitar was very polite and attenuative. If flying from Stanstead Airport again I would choose this hotel

I liked everything very much, thank you, friendly staff, clean, comfortable......

When I originally phoned the hotel I requested an early check in as my son was getting married at 2pm. I was asked to call the day before to check times which I did, as they we're still unsure I was asked to call again the morning of arrival. The receptionist was extremely helpful and said we can arrive for an 11 check-in but as there were 4 of us we would be on separate floors which wasn't a problem. We arrived at 11am to be told we were on the same floor as she had managed to jiggle the rooms around. We wanted some more tea, milk and sugar for our room and we're given a handful of everything which was great from the very helpful cleaner and again for the other 2 people in our party at the front desk who again couldn't have been more helpful. The self service breakfast was brilliant. Couldn't fault anything. Thank you again for accommodating our needs.

From the moment I arrived I was given the VIP treatment. All the staff were helpful from helping me with the correct car parking procedure as I was running late. The meal was an outstanding five course which deserved a Michelin Star, at an unbelievably competitive price. I should have photographed at least the main course, starter & desert. Very sorry. The function room when I think about it now, was a bit on the bland side but wasn’t noticeable on the day due to the great company I was with and the wonderful band that entertained us. The restaurant area was more cosy and intimate, so ignore the bland function room. The whole hotel was immaculate and spacious with large rooms and plenty of car parking spaces. Wishing people a nice stay like myself.

Close to Stansted Airport, which is good for early morning flight. Good breakfast.

We always stay at the Lion & Key when we visit London and have been fortunate enough to stay here again in October, December, and also January for my husbands 80th birthday. This really is the ”Savoy” of the small hotels in London and we always know without fail, we will have the most perfect stay. All the staff genuinely care about their guests having the best experience and you cannot fault the care and attention to detail that this hotel takes to ensure an excellent customer experience. They have a great team of which we would like to thank Giorgio, Kanti and Stephania for making all our visits a home away from home. The rooms and also public areas in the hotel are kept pristinely clean and are bright and cheerful. I love the attention to detail this hotel has even with the smallest thing. i.e. the shower cap in the bathroom also has a small hairband in the box ,which is excellent if you have long hair and can’t find your own! The beds are also extremely comfortable and we both always have an excellent night sleep. We love the open kitchen where you can see all the food being freshly prepared and cooked to order. They are very generous with their breakfast time which doesn’t end until 12 o’clock lunchtime. The choice and range that they offer in their restaurant, regardless of breakfast or main meals throughout the day would accommodate even the most fussiest eaters, which I am, but even I am extremely spoilt for choice as the breakfast menu is so comprehensive. The quality of the ingredients used in the restaurant is first class and so is the time and care in presentation which also reflects the pride that they take. We can honestly say that the breakfast’s we have at the L&K are the most tastiest, freshest, consistently perfect breakfast’s we have ever had and far exceed the quality that we have experienced over the years in 4 & 5 star hotels. To be honest, we often wonder how they continuously provide such care and attention to detail for the customer, even more so since Covid as many many hotels and restaurants seem to still use this as an excuse for a less than perfect service or menu range. We must’ve had over 100 of breakfasts since we have been coming here in 2018 and the eggs are always perfectly cooked with a lovely orange yolk, regardless of whether it’s a normal full English breakfast, or my husbands favorite the Egg Royale. We very rarely eat sausages or bacon at home, but the quality and taste of the ones here are amazing, so we always, always enjoy our breakfast which set us up for exploring all day. The transport links to this hotel are excellent as well. There are four buses that go past the hotel to Leyton underground, one of which is running 24 hours and they seem to come by every few minutes. Stratford is only four stops from Leyton so excellent connections for overground, DLR, O2 etc. Liverpool Street is the next stop along for even more connections so the location we find is a great asset to wherever we
